Day 196: David and the Philistines & The Amalekites' Raid on Ziklag
Welcome to Immerse: the daily bible reading experience. On Day 196, the script narrates the events when the Philistine army mobilized, and David and his men marched with King Achish. The Philistine commanders, however, mistrust David and demand his removal from their ranks. David and his men return to Ziklag, only to find it raided and burned by the Amalekites. They discover that their families have been taken captive, which leads to great distress among David's men. David seeks guidance from the Lord and is instructed to pursue the raiders. Along the pursuit, they come across an abandoned Egyptian who guides them to the Amalekites. David and his men attack, recover all the stolen items and captives, and ensure fair distribution of the plunder. David also sends part of the recovered goods to the elders of Judah, marking his respect and solidarity with them.

Kingdoms
Immerse: Kingdoms is the third of six volumes in Immerse: The Bible Reading Experience. Kingdoms presents a new and unique journey through the story of Israel from the time of its conquest of Canaan (Joshua) through its struggle to settle the land (Judges, Ruth) and the establishment of Israel’s kingdom, which ends in a forced exile (Samuel–Kings). The nation of Israel, commissioned to be God’s light to the nations, falls to division and then foreign conquest for rejecting God’s rule.
